Period: 2004 - 2005Type: European Project (IST VI FP)Description: BioSec is an Integrated Project where Biometrics and security play together to leverage trust and confidence in a wide spectrum of everyday applications. Partners from nine countries constitute a critical mass in the Biometric area (including big companies, biometric HW/SW producers, prestigious universities and SMEs). Research is focused on issues such as : scientific/technological (such as 3D biometrics and aliveness detection); user-centred (acceptance, usability and legal framework); and application-related (such as secure interoperable biometric tokens and remote authentication).
